So seriously. What's the big deal about spending a few dollars a month on a Club Penguin membership?
SERIOUSLY!?
You spend WAY more money on a movie, food, and other junk you don't need and probably don't really even want.
You have the money. I KNOW you do!
So why oh why do you complain about the price of a membership?
I wanna know. Please tell me...

Because people without it aren't allowed to get it. That's why they complain.
I don't complain about d price, even though it is expensive....I can't get it because my mam doesn't own a credit card etc.
Mimo...
You have just lost all the puny amount of "respect" I ever had for you.
The memberships are WAY to expensive.
Get it through you're little brain.
Some of us aren't "goody-goody" rich people with FREAKING truck loads of money like YOU! Don't be so spoiled!
SOME OF US CAN'T FREAKIN' AFFORD IT!! -_-
i am gonna STOP reading your blog! you r way wrong! some people cant AFFORD to buy a memberships you know!
get it through your little brain!
Mimo, I have also lost all the respect I've had from you. Sure, we buy all that stuff but in our parents' eyes that is 10000% worth more than getting a membership to an online game. To them, it's a stupid brain melting, time wasting virtual world.
Oh yeah... and mimo? only 1 million out of 13 million penguins are members. So therefore, most of your blog "fans" are non-members. And they surely will lose respect for you. You probably just lost a LOT of viewers including me.
ur life will get harder once you get to college. you have always been home-schooled, never had to wake up as early as we do. once u get to college, you won't know how to socalize. look at how many views you've lost. LOL!
wow ppl are so mean. but mimo, thinking about the great depression, and that some people dont think of cp as a fun website (not me) they really just dont want to buy a membership.
p.s. mimo does not have a "puny" brain 4 all you haters...

I will still listen to you but dont post things like this it will get more people to stop watching you I have the money but I just want to save it Mimmo777 folower CP Name Maisymitsy
Ok, a company has every right to charge an appropriate price for a product or service. When I say "appropriate price" I mean something reasonable. Nearly 8 dollars a month for a virtual game is NOT what I consider reasonable. Honestly! It isn't even *real;* you can't hold your membership or keep it forever. In the end it's not really worth the money.
Now the part of this post where you say that we have the money... now come on. There are many parents that certainly do not have the money to waste away on a game in which you can't even use the things you bought once the membership expires. And it's not like we're only cutting Club Penguin, it's movies and other leisure activities as well. We have to adjust to our new economic environment, and unfortunately for many families, including mine, this means making sacrifices. Oh and last time I checked, food isn't "junk you don't need."
It just saddens me that not everyone sees that we are not all blessed with copious amounts of money... I want to say that if I had more money, then no, I don't think I would mind the price increase. But you see, the cost of living (the stuff we need/want, like food, gas, games) is rising, but my parents' pay checks are not. So something's gotta give.
That is all.
I understand what you mean, but I see no point in writing a short blog post like this just to bash the people who are not members and who might not have the money to pay for them. There are obviously people out there who would like to have access to member features, but can't due to the raised pricing of memberships. Yes, there were people who complained before, but I understand why they have been complaining lately after the raise. Please realize that Club Penguin RAISED the prices soon after they had their domain issue. That was a terrible move. I don't know what type of marketing strategy they have going on, but there are apparent reasons of why people have complaints.
u spoild the virtul wrld is waste o money!
stop saying your losing respect for Mimo, geez peoples honestly you can just buy a one month membership its only like what? 7 to 8 dollars? seriously $8 isn't that much. give the guy a break! you dont even need a membership to enjoy the SIMPLE things in CP sure for certain parties but that isn't the point. geez people COMMON SENSE!!!
Some parents think they have better things to spend money on and I don't have an allowance
Hey Mimo! Other people, please don't judge me, but I still have "respect" for Mimo. He was'nt trying to make you people mad!!!! But Mimo, since you asked, I think people complain about the price of membership because it all adds up in the end. If you are not careful you could end up with a lot of money to pay for a CP membership.
Wow mimo just wow your the one who begged for your club penguin toys at toysrus. The reason is that not ALL of us have the money and spend more money on junk we dont need? Club Penguin is what we dont need. When people can be buying food you buy club penguin. Club Penguin is too much money each month notice how you get EVERYTHING earily that you unboxed? And if you say "I KNOW you have the money" Then i dont care go waste all your money on club penguin. And your a little bit too old to be on Club Penguin Your website is supposed too be about CLUB PENGUIN Not giveways.
You guys aren't reading Mimo's blog anymore just because of this post? Like really... He's just asking us why we complain about memberships' prices. Don't have to make a big deal out of it..
You people are so mean. :/
Their are people in the world
who don't even have money,
you should be lucky.
I don't care if you can't afford,
keep your self happy with money
while you still can. CP DONATES
OVER 1 MILLION DOLLARS TO POOR COUNTRIES. IF YOU DONT LIKE CP PRICES, WELL STOP PLAYING IT,
Incorrect. I don't spend my money. I save it. I would buy 6 month memberships to Club Penguin. Not even sure if I wanted to pay the amount of money they had it priced for before. And now they raised it to basically $40!? That would be $80 a year wasted on some virtual website. What are you rich?! Some spoiled kid/teenager? You "know" we have the money? Some of us don't. Some of us don't live in a wealthy family like yourself. Why would you even make a post like this? You're sure going to regret it. I hope you lose "fans" and views for not having a brain.
I just want to highlight the fact that you said "You spend WAY more money on a movie, food, and other junk you don't need and probably don't even want."
*ahem.*
FIRST OF ALL.. FOOD, is a total necessity. You shouldn't just be calling it "something we don't even want". We NEED food.. or else we would literally starve. And now you're complaining that we should get a club penguin membership over FOOD? I mean movies and junk, (which i hope you assume things BESIDES our necessities), is totally reasonable.
LOOK AT REALITY. We would seriously pay over 5 dollars a month, for MEMBERSHIP. On a FLASH game. I mean yeah it's a pretty cool online game where you can have fun, but REALLY? You're debating against you're community, that they're wasting money on MOVIES, and FOOD, and JUNK.
and the pure fact that you said
"You have the money. I KNOW you do!"
Does that mean that you're trying to ASSUME that WE all have money to pay for membership for some ONLINE (flash) GAME, over what we need? No no no, you're making some false assumptions here. VERY. false assumptions, I should say. I'll end my comment at this.
I've lost your trust, probably as to all the other community members have, and how 'easy-going' you think we are with money.
Wow. Don't be hating on Mimo. Mimo, thank you for posting this. Someone finally agree with me.
Mimo, you rock my socks.
~Braceface27
mimo aint hatin on non members he just seying stop complaning
People have the right to complain. The money you pay for Club Penguin adds up. Money doesn't grow on trees you know.
sellout...
Mimo, I have to agree with everyone that I just lost all respect for you, you spoiled little brat! >:( How ironic that you said we spend money on pointless little things like movies, as if a CP Membership isn't pointless! >:( I'm not gonna be told off by some antisocial little jerk like you! What do you do all day? Chrck the million little virtual worlds you play in? Get a life!
Wait so you're saying we shouldn't spend money on food because we don't want or need it? Lolololol.
Dear those who are now hating on Mimo,
Lay of him alittle, I myself am also a member, but I am not/noe is Mimo a "goody-goody" He is speakign the truth, almost all of your comments are saying to ban people who dress up and talk like babies on club penguin, THAT IS TOTALLY UN-FAIR! And Its true! You guys buy movies which are the same price as a 6 month membership! Thats half a year! If you love the site, you would buy one! Think! Black-Ops cost more to buy one certain game sometimes! If you can't afford it, say that, dont start complaining, their is no way club penguin could even run with like $3 membership. I haven't lost any respect what-so-ever for you mimo! Keep up the great blogging! Your eveyones number one source for cheats! Don't listen to them Mimo...
~Tim250
Guys! Calm down! Mimo said NOTHING about "NON-MEMBERS ARE STUPID!" or anything at all about bashing people who don't have memberships, he's just sick of people complaining about not having them when the people who complain are the same ones who chose to spend the spare change money they have on candy bars. Mimo isn't insulting any one, he's just pretty much telling people to stop complaining and get over it.
~Happywagon (CPG Mod)~
Guys, Club Penguin NEEDS money. In this economic time, money is scarce. Club Penguin is a company. DISNEY NEEDS THE MONEY TO PAY THEIR WORKERS! Stop arguing about the price increase! Be glad you don't even need to pay to even PLAY Club Penguin. Some sites you need to PAY to actually play the site. When the economy gets better the prices will drop. Guys, ITS THE ECONOMY! Get used to the change and tough time we are going through. If you don't want a membership, you don't have to get one.
Maybe if Club Penguin improved their game it would be worth the price. Didn't the site stop working a little bit after they raised the prices? There are countless glitches at parties.
MIMO, TAKE THE TIME TO PLZ READ THIS.
Ok. I used to like you, but this is ridiculous. Not everyone can buy it, even if they do have truckloads of money, they might use currency from a different country that CP doesn't accept, and don't have a credit card.
Even if you live in a nice, big house with food, beds, and running water, it might be a HUGE amount of money to pay. It's even EXTRA money since we are currently in a drought, whch makes us have to pay a bit more for water and a lot more for AC. So not everyone can afford memberships.
About 300 out of 1,000 penguins have memberships.
I am complaining because right after CP lost the domain, which lost about 4% of their penguins, they boosted the prices, which may have lost 7% of their penguins. And now, there may only be 200 out of 1,000 penguins.
I even did a test. I held a small party on CP, and about 6 out of 10 penguins were non-members.
I would simply like to explain to you that not everyone has the luxury that you do.
Plus, America is having a few money problems... which makes it even MORE money.
That's why, when my membership expires, I will NOT renew the membership and move on from CP for a while. I'm too old to be playing on games like that, spending all of my money on little things you don't even need.
So, hear me when I say, I am no longer playing CP until further notice, to support those people who can;t afford the memberships.
Farewell Mimo.
P.S. You just lost 1 Follower.
Way bad topic unless it was tongue in cheek like asking for reply
The team just offers no support for most things.
I could list tons of stuff, I have already to CP team.
BUT. That said, the reason for the price raise in our USA economy is a HUGE HUGE mistake.
it takes an average wage 2 hours of WORK to make enough for a month of CP.
24 hours a year just to PLAY cp.
they get money with cards, toys, (if you are lucky enough to have them shipped to stores.. ive had no new stuff since series 12 penguins aka NO BROWN PUFFLES HERE!)
and now US?? no no no 8$ is lots considering the game it is..
4$ is fine or 5$ whatever it WAS.
and even that seemed over priced.
wife left me .. my girl is 10 i pay for 2 accounts at 16$ a month.. yea fun :P

Yo, don't mess with Mimo like that! Instead, you should be learning the difference between "your" and "you're"!
i am gonna STOP reading your blog! you r way wrong! some people cant AFFORD to buy a memberships you know!
get it through your little brain!
----------
You're gonna stop reading his blog? He made a point! CP is the most popular VW, 7-8 dollars for 1 month membership is the right cost.
ur life will get harder once you get to college. you have always been home-schooled, never had to wake up as early as we do. once u get to college, you won't know how to socalize. look at how many views you've lost. LOL!
----------
Atleast Mimo knows how to spell "Your".
Hey Mimo's right, 8 dollars for a month membership. I don't have a job or allowance but i still manage to earn at least 60$ every month. There is a little thing called hard work sorry if most of you guys have never done it but it really comes through. You guys are so immature to complain so much about 8 dollars. If you can't scrape eight dollars up in a month then
1. that is really pathetic
2. try earning money, I mean really 8 dollars...
3. YOU DON'T NEED A STINKING MEMBERSHIP.
If you guys are gonna stop reading his blog because of 1 post then you guys really need help.
If you can't earn money at all try learning to mow or something, i live on 55 acres and guess who mows it. Some people will pay a lot for simple easy jobs. I got 100$ and a slushie for helping someone move. One thing I've learned is that hard work FREAKIN PAYS OFF. SO STOP BUGGING MIMO. Seriously guys some of you guys are just impossible to understand, 8 dollars I helped someone clean an office for 45 minutes and got 60 dollars it's not impossible guys, and if your gonna complain just don't get one. Maybe you should enter contests for free memberships or something.
Personally, i'm totally fine with members.... but Mimo, this post was totally inapropriate and stupid I question your sanity, and i still don't respect you as much.
He's trying to prove a point! All you guys do is complain about CP being unfair!
I usually let people speak their mind and this doesnt offend me as much as other people. The price is kinda expensive. Plus my movie tickets are only 4 dollars LOL. But i usually save money for something called university when i grow up XD. My mother doesn't support online gaming sites so im not allowed buying anything from them. -_- I still support you and all it's just that i think you should apologize to some people since they aren't very pleased cause i understand what is like to be poor. My cousin is in debt and has to work and everything just to go to a good school. Nobody here is cheap, they just have other important needs where gaming sites come second or third.
explain it was tongue in cheek mimo!
like more like rhetoric as in
COMPLAIN HERE!!! why are the prices so high.. or are you ok with them now?
etc
and the number is more than 1 mil to 13 million.. those arent valid numbers
there are not 13 million players..
some have 7 penguins etc..
and 1 is paid 6 are free etc..
I actually DON'T have the money most of the time. I waste it on candy bars, and pokemon cards, and card jitsu cards, and maybe some other junk. But when I work up $6.00 I usually buy one.
Why are you so angry? You're just an immature little child that gets what he wants. Some people need to choose between getting their next meal and having things they want. Grow up, learn the ways of the world, and then start getting mad at the underprivliged kids who just want a little fun in their lives...
Really people on here need to calm down. The membership really isnt expensive. I get mine every month. I live in a crappy area. If your parents can afford to pay for internet then im sure they can afford your member ship. Its sad to hear all the dis respect that mimo is getting. Because everyone who cant get a membership is complaining. Stop complaining. Its a buisness. So when people say "oh we dont have truck loads of money and stuff like that" the reality is. My mom is broke and she just got payed the 7th. She now lives off of tips till the end of the month. Thats how it is everymonth. Its not a big deal. Are you kidding me? If it is such a big deal. GO GET A JOB. Work, walk dogs, mow lawns, lemonade stands. All of that stuff works. I used to do it all the time. Stop complaining.
Mimo, you've got a point but all those complaints do have a point. not everyone can go spending money on something that they don't need. i'm lucky enough to afford membership and go overseas for the first time ever! (im going to america! yay!)
but you're still awesome! and ill continue reading your posts and not send you threatening comments!
-Hyperace
Woow. Calm down lil people.
Honestly I know that money is an issue for a lot of penguins. But guess what? It's like what, a buck or 2 more than before? Not a HUGE deal but some can't pay for it. Money doesn't matter! But if you can't afford it, that's fine, but don't complain about it.
alright, mimo, listen up.
i'm an asian, so that means
1. no spending money on games.
2. no movies. (so i don't "waste money on movies and junk") i go to the movies about once every three years....
yeah, i understand that disney has to make money and all that, but some of us just can't spend money on a freaking GAME every month.
its so stupid

Both of you are wrong. I dont come from a rich family. But I do have a member ship! Mimo is soooo right. You two are the ones with the little brain. Not Mimo!
i don't complain about it, but i am very angry with it. when membership prices were 6 dollars, my dad used to get me ms (membership all the time) but since they raised it 2 dollars, he will rarely/never get me another membership. he thinks 8 dollars is just to expensive for a game. it may not be expensive for stuff you mentioned like movies, but it is for membership on a virtual game.
First of all, mimo dosent have a tiny brain
Second, CP has to have raised prices because Canada is a more expensive place to live. So they charge more. As prices go up there, we have to pay more. We pay for CP! You dont wanna pay, dont pay! When CP goes down, dont look at mimo or Disney. And the raise after the domain lost is because they have to charge more so that dosent happen!

It's called abbreviating... Idiot.
Sorry but yes it is expensive. My parents work so hard for a paycheck and I'm not going to waste their money on a virtual world with virtual clothes with virtual friends. I have a life. And $8 a month? Seriously? I have exams to take that costs about $100 per subject. Plus I'm graduating pretty soon and I have to take my AP exams and SAT's. I'd rather pay money for my exams that's going to benefit my future rather than waste money on a virtual world. If you work for the money then be a member I don't care. But if it's your parents hard working money then think about them rather than yourself all the time.
Hello Mimo. The reason we rant and rage about the prices...is well...IT'S VIRTUAL! We could be spending money on real things in real life. Although CP membership is great, it's all gonna run out sooner or later 3:
Oh, so you're saying that EVERYONE has money to waste? Mimo, wake up! This is reality, not your silly fantasy world. Some people don't have the money, okay? Sure, people can spend their "movies" money on club penguin membership but ever thought that some people have no money to buy even FOOD? And mimo, if you didn't know, food is a necessity. I don't think that you'll be here if you didn't eat food. Even though we may have money, doesn't mean that we ALL need to spend it. Ever thought of saving it instead? Seriously Mimo, sheesh.

as fore 24 hours.. yes its lots more than you think mate.
i mean thats minimum wage :P
not what I make or what not.
and yea once she is 14 she will NOT be playing CP.. she will be into boys and such. Ill be left with the waddle :P
anyway again. Disney makes to much money
and for not shipping toys to california, at all (missing 3 series of puffles now and 3 penguin series) but I HAVE THE JUMBO PUFFLES
we just want tactical agent and a new brown puffle, until then..
those memberships can kick rocks for all the dough ive spent on them they give little to no reward back at all.
a smile when i get a toy happy when its a cool one .. but NO TOYS anymore for CP! at ALL!
only the cards (which rock but who needs 1000000 spares that I have) and still no complete set
oops digression!
mimo keep a bloggin..
i was more thinking the question was asked rhetorically. guess not :P

it's obviously way too expensive - $8 a month to buy some clothes and play a few extra games? JOKE $6 was fair but $3-4 is the correct price...and not everyone has money like you. u sound like a spoiled kid in this post
People can afford it, but I understand why they don't pay for it. It's a waste of money. You could have donated it to someone or saved it for college.
And you can shut up about how Club Penguin donates money to other countries. But only a tad bit. Like McDonalds donates 1 cent to every order made. McDonalds makes more money. So CP might only donate 1/4 of a cent to every Club Penguin membership purchased.
You probably check the Club Penguin "what's new" blogpage every minute. Does your parents even care about your education? Out of all of us, you are the one that seriously needs a life

P.S. YOU SOUND LIKE IF UR SPOILED SINCE U GET 8 BUCKS WHILE UR MOM IS BROKE.
P.S.S.I BET U WENT TROUGH A LOT OF CRYING WHEN U WERE A LITTLE KID!
It could be a little cheaper like mabye a few dollars. I don't see why these people are complaining.
p.s. Mimo does not have a "little or puny brain" to all you haters
p.p.s. to you haters who said you can't afford it at least you have enough money to get food unlike the children that club penguin donates all that membership money to.
WAIT WATS THIS YOU JUST SAID ABOUT NOT NEEDING FOOD!!!!
MIMO WHEN UR PARENTS RETIRE LETS SEE WHERE YOUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!! ARE AT SHALL WE!?!?!
U LOST 1 MORE FOLLOWER

First of all don't start an online riot! Just because families like mimo's are able to pay that bill and don't think twice is fine and if having a membership is not your families thing...WHOOPDIE , FREAKING , DOO! My family is still paying the 'ol 6 bucks because I joined at CP golden age not now where irritating newbies who sit around complain about the prices AND DO NOTHING. Do some chores or get a stupid lemonade stand for all I care if you really care about a membership. Mimo is just tired of all the complaining like me! Gosh, I will always read Mimo site and have respect for him cause I enjoy his blog :) GOOD DAY!
i pay for the year membership and its the best thing i have ever payed for in my life!! im not rich but i still save up. some people are just to cheap. and how els is club penguin gonna make there money!!?? geeze people dont be so cheap. your lucky its only that much couse that cheap compared to other games -.-
some people are complaining about the app being 99cents!! big whoop people its 99 cents its not like its gonna put a big dent in your wallet
I like to add though that I know some families can't afford it and I SO understand. But you don't need to bash Mimo if he is adressing all the stingy complainers. Which aren't some of you, he isn't talking about the people who are going through hard times right now. So lighten up and enjoy CP and Mimo because he doesn't have "truck loads of money" and he is not a bad guy.
wow people stop being so rude to mimo k?? some people here really are cheap . i can tell by what they are saying lol. its only 8 dollers who cares!!??? its soo worth it! i love my membership
I <3 you mimo don't listen to HATERS

Sorry mimo, I shouldn't be so harsh. Your blog is great but maybe you shouldn't have posted this. A lot of people are hating now. I think I might have gone over the top. So, sorry.

Really people on here need to calm down. The membership really isnt expensive. I get mine every month. I live in a crappy area. If your parents can afford to pay for internet then im sure they can afford your member ship. Its sad to hear all the dis respect that mimo is getting. Because everyone who cant get a membership is complaining. Stop complaining. Its a buisness. So when people say "oh we dont have truck loads of money and stuff like that" the reality is. My mom is broke and she just got payed the 7th. She now lives off of tips till the end of the month. Thats how it is everymonth. Its not a big deal. Are you kidding me? If it is such a big deal. GO GET A JOB. Work, walk dogs, mow lawns, lemonade stands. All of that stuff works. I used to do it all the time. Stop complaining.
--------------------
And your mom is broke? I don't think you should be wasting her money on a stupid virtual world on the Internet. Ever thought of SAVING the money instead?
===========
get your BIG NOSE OUT OF HIS FAMILY!
YOU SICK PERSON. i want to throw up.
attention haters drop the hating. mimo tweeted that he regrets posting that. so stop and accept mimo cause he is sorry
Well, some of us don't earn a lot of money off of a really popular website, that's why!!!!
The memberships are way overpriced! In the end, it really adds up! It's SO MUCH MONEY! I make a lot of money selling homemade goods on Etsy, but CP is still really expensive! You hardly get anything good out of that site, either! Membership runs out, video games don't. As long as you have the system, and an outlet, you can play forever! And I wanna save up for big things, like a car, and uni, so I'm not running around trying to rake up all the cash I can find so I can get these things!
Now, I'm sorry if that came off a little bit mean, or offensive, or whatever. It's just...
CP Membership > Movies?
CP Membership > Video Games?
CP Membership > FOOD?!
CP Membership > Physical items?
NO!
It's not!
I, personally, think you could not have picked a worse time to post this. Sorry, Mimo. People are taking this the wrong way :( (Or is it the right way?) I know you're probably going to post something else saying "I just wanted your opinion, guys no need to take it so seriously" kind of thing, but you could've worded it a little better.
See ya Mimo.
Whats up with the picture do you have money toilet paper? jees we are not kings we have to work to get money my parents owe my about $100 but i dont complain and i offer it to them and when my dad tries to give me allowance i don't accept it cause i know they need the money more than i do. and whats 8 x 12 ya 96 dollars a year i dont have that money for a video virtual world. You can buy call of duty for $50 and never have to pay another fee again.
I just want to say something to all the people that are saying people are spamming: Not to be rude, or offensive or anything, but spamming isn't the same as debating an argument. Spamming is something like chain mail, or pointless things (as distinct from trolling which is basically senseless rude-ness). Debating an argument is making a point.
Yes, yes, I know some people are being rude, but it's not spamming.
Just a little knowledge for all you peeps ;)
Okay, to Anonymous #1, UNDERSTAND, Gabbi, your ex-fan :D, Anonymous #3, Spq96 and many more...
Well, the prices on memberships are actually pretty reasonable for the ammount of fun which you can have with them. Okay, say that you are a poor child with poor parents but have relatives and friends with average ammounts of money - like all of you. Well, for christmas/birthdays/easter, what if you asked for money instead of the occasional unwanted present? Then, with that money, what if you bought a membership? Maybe even just for one month to see if you even like it.
And besides, with all this money, lance Merrifield donates to charities and helps out children and teenages with diseases. Mimo did nothing wrong and he was just making a point that there are reasons why Club Penguin has very high prices. If you can't live with it, just stop playing the game! I am sick of people thinking that members are rich little kids with nothing better to do than to play this wonderful game. Maybe, some of us are sacrificing things to have memberships.
You are never to old for Club Penguin. The owner is a man in his 30's or 40's. I am 11 and I am going to high school next year. And guess what? I still play Club Penguin. Games like these make me feel happy and when the fans get grumpy over such a silly thing, like membership prices, I just want to scream.
I would be very happy if you took the time to read this, especially if you are a slow reader. Mimo is a nice person and some of these comments might be making him sad enough to cry.
Don't have the money,way too expensive for an online game i dont evenplay that often and not allowed.kids dont exactly get credit cards growing on trees and i agrees with anonymous.
I would love a CP membership. But the way things are we cannot afford one.I would never be allowed to have one anyway as it has to be paid for on MY PARENTS CREDIT CARD WITH THEIR MONEY! We can barely afford groceries each week,my brothers pays for most on the net costs. I do save my money but I buy it for stuff I need,I do not spend it on movies at all or food ,cp is the other junk. I'm not complaining about the price rise,just membership prices in general. And CP memberships are stupid,you cannot use what you bought when it expires. I can't get a job as I am 13 and no one will hire and unlike all the commentors why should I have to get a job if I want a CP membership,I've got a life you know -.-
Hey, to the guy that put Mimo and the start of his sentance.....
I have had a membership for 3 years now, since I was 11 ( yes sure you have guess my age, but thats not the point ;P )
I have the first membership that is on there to have. I pay for it myself by working hard on a paper round. If I don`t have enough money, then I work at home. I am not rich. Nor am I poor. I simply work for it because I think Club Penguin is worth my time. So to all those people who say "But my parents can`t afford it" Or " They won`t give me the money" Then get off your sofa and stop playing computer games or watching TV and go and earn the money! Stop being so childish, or if you can`t work, then ask your parents if you do some chores, to get a little money!
P.S, Mimo only asked about why you complained, not for a load of nasty comments and abuse!
I miss the OLD Mimo! Where you said "I feel like that I would rather save my money for my family then spend it on CP" That`s why u changed your pic! Cuz u r a member now! And once u were gonna give out a free mebership but "accidently" gave it to yourself, :| I have been reading ur website since day one, but sorry, over :(
Oh my god guys. Seriously, since I'd be breaking rules, I'm refraining from swearing. But I'm quite annoyed here.
I for one agree with him. He meant a one month membership, what you lot are saying is quite the exaggeration.
If you don't like this post, tough luck bro. He's posted the post, get over it.
It's a few dollars. Maybe not the year memberships, but he isn't calling everyone right, ne?
I mean there are a lot of benefits from a membership.
So don't come crying here when your parents don't let you get a membership.
-Mr Waffle8D.
I have made a small survey and found out that most of the people in my country play CP, and r non-members. And most of them read your blog. But i do have to say it is a little insulting to call those whose money is a third of your currency "cheap". If anyone's parents earn 2500$ USD a month, that is equivalent to 7500$ in our currency.So, 8$ = 24$ in our currency. And that is a lot. That is why most of are stabbed in the heart by this post and i'd suggest to remove it. It is also illogical to call food, junk. Because we, humans live on food and water as basic needs. If water is absent, food is needed and vice versa. And we humans pay for the food we eat so add that to our household expenses and we consume up to 3/4 of our parents salary in a month including savings for those who do save. But to those who do have the money, save it for your coming future, you will need it most then.
I would advice to focus more on studies than this online gaming.
When i used to play CP I never got first in my class, but now that i have stopped, i commonly do.
So, in conclusion, I would have to say, on behalf of the non-members, we deserve some respect, too! Don't just go around callin' people "cheap" before even knowing their background and condition.
That is all i have to say.
so everyone's gonna stop looking at mimo's things just because he asked you why you're not willing to pay for a membership?
that's really sad.
ikr there cheap but i guess some people cant afford it
Mimo! Big mistake! Delete the post! I can't afford a membership and that was kind of hurtful. I'm not cheap, and you said we waste money on stuff that we don't need but... Don't we need FOOD to live?! lol Bad day or something! Cuz this was a huge mistake posting that. Saying this as a friend and frequent reader.
i agree with both sides mimos and nonmembers heres how
mimos side/club penguin needs the money without it we would have no puffles parties free items members and no club penguin meaning no nonmembers therefore club penguin would go broke i mean yes disney owns club penguin and yes they have tons of money but they also have tons of workers and people who need to pay meaning they earn about 50% less than an average child thinks so 7 nz dollars isn't much if club penguin means so much to you do what i do and sacrifice some other games and toys and lollies for membership i bet you get some toys and lollies every now and then each toy will cost about $15 to $20 a few less mars bars and xmas presents and you could pay for it yourself so stop being cheap and stop complaining you cry babies
nonmembers side/ok so $7 nz is a bit much for a little game and they could at least lower it back to 5$ because they wont earn as much from an individual penguin but over all more penguins would be members mean ing they get more money
but still you save $7 dollars for a six month membership try that or save $7 dollars and pay for a year so if you pay $35 you get a whole month free no charge so if you still cant afford to get $35 every 6 months then i am so sorry you live with so little money and you then have every right to complain about not having the money but not about the prices how is club penguin suppose to tell if you are poor or not and if you get special treatment everyone will want it
by platypusab
i posted a comment before and i would like to ad by food mimo probably meant lollies chocolate and fizzy drinks. If he meant meat lettuce apples food we need then yes he's being crazy i still have full respect no sorry i dont i have full more respect mimos just telling you cry babies to stop complaining witch is fare execpt to those with absolutely no money so but those who do have lollies and a few toys then instead of that you should pay for membership if you dont think its worth it then you dont like club penguin enough and should put up as a nonmember or stop playing
Don't be so cheap!Mimo is right.6$ per mounth are not a truck of money.We spend money everywhere.If you have a computer , an internet conection that mean you have 6$ per mounth...Everyone say:"We need free membership!"That is stupid because cp and Disney needmoney for gadget , to pay the employments...DON'T BE SO CHEAP!!!!!!!!!!!!
there's only 8$.Who cares?
People who hate mimo after this article are soo cheap...
My Dad says it's COMPLETLY pointlesss! He says that because the prices cost to much because if he pays for it once, we will expect him to pay every month.
I have two reason why I'm mad about the membership prices.
1)Not even one single membership cards are available in my country, Malaysia
2)1 Month costs RM14+ for me!
If Club Penguin took consideration about the first one, I would already have membership giveaways by now :(
Ok. Mimo, wtf made you post this!?
Maybe some parents actually care about their children and what they do and maybe they aren't very pleased with them spending hours on the computer when they could be outside, enjoying REAL life. Why would they encourage wasting time (and money) on the freaking internet!?
Stop saying these things for Mimo ,,I have respect Mimo I still respect him and I will always respect him ,, Mimo you are the best ,,Whatever, All games in the world have a membership and give the best for the members ^_^
so mimo if its so cheap for you who dont you have one
COME ON TELL US
MIMO
BTW IM A MEMBER
wait wait wait>>>>mimo dont worry about the membership we dont need it ok> but i want some new to club penguin like nonmembers can buy some items in the catalog and more activities k and some new items>
im italian and i haven't a credit card!!!!! I can't pay a membership
Mimo, thank you for not being proud and telling us that you regret posting it.

Why do people keep spamming hate.
sigh
as fore 24 hours.. yes its lots more than you think mate.
i mean thats minimum wage :P
not what I make or what not.
and yea once she is 14 she will NOT be playing CP.. she will be into boys and such. Ill be left with the waddle :P
anyway again. Disney makes to much money
and for not shipping toys to california, at all (missing 3 series of puffles now and 3 penguin series) but I HAVE THE JUMBO PUFFLES
we just want tactical agent and a new brown puffle, until then..
those memberships can kick rocks for all the dough ive spent on them they give little to no reward back at all.
a smile when i get a toy happy when its a cool one .. but NO TOYS anymore for CP! at ALL!
only the cards (which rock but who needs 1000000 spares that I have) and still no complete set
oops digression!
mimo keep a bloggin..
i was more thinking the question was asked rhetorically. guess not :P
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dude! Don't be hating! 24 hours is not that much. Its 4 hours a week. Minimum wage is $8.75. Not much but it adds up. And you probably make higher than minimum wage.
I'm 14 and I still play CP. Yeah, I'm into the opposite gender, and I also go to school (3 honors c;asses), play violin in 3 groups, and hang out with my friends. So maybe she will keep playing it.
You can buy the oys online at Disney and even eBay. With free shipping.
Membership does have a reward. It makes your kids have a ot more fun on CP.
And if you don't like the cards, quit buying them.
Just stop. You're starting to get mean.

ur life will get harder once you get to college. you have always been home-schooled, never had to wake up as early as we do. once u get to college, you won't know how to socalize. look at how many views you've lost. LOL!
-----
That was completely uncalled for. I am homeschooled, and I don't want to have an argument about whether it's good or whether it isn't, but it seems to me that you're the one without social skills. It seems to me that you are making assumptions based on your own opinions, and that you don't know enough about homeschooling, or about Mimo himself, to state that Mimo doesn't know how to socialize.
/endrant.
One specific thing one penguin said was, "You buy that amount of money on a movie for SIX MONTHS!" Well, first off, you reffered ro 8 dollars, which is only one month, and it expires, and half of all movie stores are for permenant keeping. Id rather save my money for other stuff that I can use in REAL LIFE with my FRIENDS than on some game that someone made up.
Oh, Mimo? The last time I checked, food isnt "junk you dont need and probably dont want anyway", its more like something well litterally doe without. Sorry if you have 10000 fridges filled with unhealthy food, but it's NECCESSARY.
First of all did ClubPenguin put you up to this????And i suddenly have a point with my cousin.Months ago my cousin saw me playing cp, we talked a bit about it, she made an acount once she went to the gift shop and the member sighn came out she was like "what the ****?!?!?!" and i was like u need to pay money blah blah blah and then she just said : why on earth should i pay MONEY to enjoy a simple GAME!!and she walked away!! I have a membership but i still agree that its a lot ithink the 1 month membership shoud be $3.99 at the most IT IS WAAAY TOO EXPENSIVE NOW. P.S. what did cp give u for this a life time membership or something???????????
sorry....mimo i kind of got overboard....its not your fault :/
Clam down people.If you dont want to read this blog,then dont!Mimo has more than 1 billions fans and they are not going to not read his blog just for a post!i mean COME ON PEOPLE!ITS IS JUST 8$ FOR A MONTH OF FUN!IT MAY NOT LAST FOREVER BUT AT LEAST YOU GET SOME FUN ON CP MORE THAN YOU USUALLY DO!you are really mean on mimo(no offence).if you cant offord it,then dont buy it.Mimo is just telling you its not expensive!He's not telling you that you SHOULD buy it.If you want to but it they do it if you dont want to then dont no one is forcing you to do so!

I can understand why you regret posting this Mimo, but here is the truth:
Club Penguin's prices are only high because of Disney. Disney has always been a rip off, thinking they're somehow really posh. I love Club Penguin and I have to save up for ages to afford £3.95. (Yes, I'm British.) I think that the prices are stupidly high, and that you must have an awful lot of money if you think everyone can afford it. I have a friend who today, realised that tomorrow she can't have lunch because she and her Mum couldn't afford it ontop of everything else. None of my friends (including me) have much money, but we work together and share ours so we all get lunch. You may not have to do that Mimo, but there are people that are even worse off then we are. Incase you haven't noticed.

Ok, a company has every right to charge an appropriate price for a product or service. When I say "appropriate price" I mean something reasonable. Nearly 8 dollars a month for a virtual game is NOT what I consider reasonable. Honestly! It isn't even *real;* you can't hold your membership or keep it forever. In the end it's not really worth the money.
Now the part of this post where you say that we have the money... now come on. There are many parents that certainly do not have the money to waste away on a game in which you can't even use the things you bought once the membership expires. And it's not like we're only cutting Club Penguin, it's movies and other leisure activities as well. We have to adjust to our new economic environment, and unfortunately for many families, including mine, this means making sacrifices. Oh and last time I checked, food isn't "junk you don't need."
It just saddens me that not everyone sees that we are not all blessed with copious amounts of money... I want to say that if I had more money, then no, I don't think I would mind the price increase. But you see, the cost of living (the stuff we need/want, like food, gas, games) is rising, but my parents' pay checks are not. So something's gotta give.

Dear those who are now hating on Mimo,
Lay of him alittle, I myself am also a member, but I am not/noe is Mimo a "goody-goody" He is speakign the truth, almost all of your comments are saying to ban people who dress up and talk like babies on club penguin, THAT IS TOTALLY UN-FAIR! And Its true! You guys buy movies which are the same price as a 6 month membership! Thats half a year! If you love the site, you would buy one! Think! Black-Ops cost more to buy one certain game sometimes! If you can't afford it, say that, dont start complaining, their is no way club penguin could even run with like $3 membership. I haven't lost any respect what-so-ever for you mimo! Keep up the great blogging! Your eveyones number one source for cheats! Don't listen to them Mimo...
~Tim250

Are you being serious? Club penguin memberships- Get it once and once it finishes all complete evidence of you being a member is gone. No more cool clothes no more igloo furniture. Things like games might cost the same, but you can keep them forever, and actually hold them in your hands. Movies- You watch them and can watch them again and again. Some of you people need to stop living a life were you have so much money you get everything you want and think everybody eles is like that.
If you think about it, it may not be alot of money, but when you spend it all on something like Clubpenguin it suddenley because ALOT of money. It's a virtual website.
Oh and I want to say ONE more thing....
You little brat.
Food is EXTREMELY important!
USE you're BRAIN if you HAVE one! -_-
club penguin is just some stupid flash game. You're the one who begged for all that CP CRAP! Thats how you got them "Early". I am NEVER coming here again.
You just lost one fan. -_-
Someone said CP is not greater then video games. Movies. WELL GROW UP! I wont name names, but that is junk. You don't need the video games. Ditch those and get a CP membership if you want.
O my god? IT ISNT A WASTE OF MONEY And if u dont have a credit card GET THE MEMBER CARD its much more easier u just pay it straight with no monthly fee :D HAPPY?

You have just lost all the puny amount of "respect" I ever had for you.
The memberships are WAY to expensive.
Get it through you're little brain.
Some of us aren't "goody-goody" rich people with FREAKING truck loads of money like YOU! Don't be so spoiled!
SOME OF US CAN'T FREAKIN' AFFORD IT!! -_-
So ur saying u cant afford $6 worth of membership! no offence but ur kinda talking for urself saying ur poor i mean if u dont get the membership monthly fee get a member card
Dear Gabi ur ex fan :D
Ur acting like some 5 year old brat
-_- GEEZ and 1 million out of 13? Thats how much people play club penguin u cant expect someone all the way from china reading that can u? wow Kinda weird Seeing AS UR ALL COMPLAINING and hes just asking why u r. AND now give him the blame? im beggining to hate u not him
Sooo Mimo your a little bit right but.... If your spending money in real life its really diffrent to spend it on virtual world afcourse those who made the game wants got paid for the good work but You can grow up from CP real fast :/ tnhks for reading this :P P.S it would be better that CP would have all life membership not to pay each month
Mimo your a faget.
Kalifunfans said...
Way bad topic unless it was tongue in cheek like asking for reply
The team just offers no support for most things.
I could list tons of stuff, I have already to CP team.
BUT. That said, the reason for the price raise in our USA economy is a HUGE HUGE mistake.
it takes an average wage 2 hours of WORK to make enough for a month of CP.
24 hours a year just to PLAY cp.
they get money with cards, toys, (if you are lucky enough to have them shipped to stores.. ive had no new stuff since series 12 penguins aka NO BROWN PUFFLES HERE!)
and now US?? no no no 8$ is lots considering the game it is..
4$ is fine or 5$ whatever it WAS.
and even that seemed over priced.
wife left me .. my girl is 10 i pay for 2 accounts at 16$ a month.. yea fun :P
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not to sound mean, but 24 hours isn't that bad. Plus when kids get old enough (14 years old) they can get a job and get $8.75 an hour.
~Braceface27 (CPG Mod)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Almost every workplace accepts 18 year olds, some accept 16 year olds, and I only know of one place that accepts 15 year olds. So please tell me where 14 year olds can get a job?
Maybe it's not much, but you have to bear in mind that many of the game's players are below 10 years of age and their parents think membership is a waste of money and time, so they don't buy it. So you can't really blame it all on greediness. :I
I haven't lost respect and am still reading the blog, but $8: 1 and a half hours of work where I live.
Besides. Membership IS overpriced. There are much, much bigger games than Club Penguin (and sometimes better too) that cost only about $5.
He meant JUNK food.
stop hating! if cp penguins had no membership, cp would not have enough money to stay online. and shut up you hating noobs, who say "your ex fan" "ive lost all respect in you" or "ive lost your trust" are all arrogant fools. mimo dont worry about what they say, there just saying that cuz there mad. there still gonna read your posts no matter what, so i think they should just shut up.
kimosabe550- you can get membership ONLINE without cards.
BUT if you truly want them hit my google up and id sell them for retail of whatever card i get
AND MOST stores still sell the 4.95$ versions not the 8$
only toys r us was asked to pull it
ANYONE have the 1 year card with rockhopper? id take one used! also still looking for any puffles or penguins as no stores in california carry them.. arrggg
-BRACEFACE
stop brown nosing :P
silly bean. I know 8$ isnt lots..
I go to starbucks and my latte(tea) is 5$ and thats just ONE.
my point was. My daughter is 10. Im 34. She will not like CP long. I kinda got hooked! LOL
so i made a free account to play with her.
Trying to upgrade that account seems pointless now.
I REALLY WANT THE TOYS .. at non TOYWIZ or EBAY prizes.. its only 7$ for a PUFFLE HERE 9-10 for a penguin!
Not 50!! ahhhh
ahem sorry
again the point is the increase insane. Google MMO's and see the average price has either raised for ALL or the games went FREE PLAY with limited access (more freedom than CP but still cant do much!)
anyone have any help or comments please feel free to contact me and my girl via google.
BROWN PUFFLE is a must!
It used to be almost $6, and now it's almost $8.
Personally, I think it should be like, almost $4 a month.
Maybe $8 would be reasonable if we could keep the items.
Besides, there are more important things in life than games.
I agree! People buy stuff for the SAME price, & that stuff they don't even need, and it does NOTHING for them. At least if you buy a Club Penguin membership your having fun, and enjoying it for a whole month. I do think Club Penguin's prices are too high, their fine now.. but I hope they don't raise them again. And people need to realize that that's how CP makes their money...so it can't be free. :\
And I actually gained some respect for u because of this post. I agree for the most part.
Guys, dont be mad at mimo just cause he said HIS opinion. everyone has different opinion on stuff, some ppl might not be affected with the price of membership as to some ppl might not be able to afford it. I PERSONALLY think tht the price isnt THAT bad, think of it. Disney NEEDS money to pay their workers, my friends mom works for Disney and if they have to raise the price to pay their workers, they HAVE to. Otherwise Club Penguin might just become a fragment of ur memory. Mimo DIDNT DO ANYTHING WROUNG, he just asked why so many ppl complain about membership prices. He didnt say tht non-members were bad, or annoying. PPL USE UR BRAINS, when u work for a big company like Disney, and u get fired cause disney doesnt have enough money to pay all their workers then what would u think of the prices. Sometimes if ur mum or dad say tht u cant have membership then maybe u could get money for membership urself, liek doin ur chores for money...ETC. The point for this super duper long post is tht MIMO DID NOTHIN WRONG, he was just asking ppl why they were mad at disney for the high prices. If you were a non-member even before the price change then why are u complaining now? if ur mum and dad say u cant, you should be mad at them for not letting u have membership, NOT DISNEY NOT MIMO. I care about what ppl say and I dont agree with most ppl this time. I will keep reading Mimo's awesome blog cause its good, DONT HATE MIMO FOREVR CAUSE OF A FREAKIN POST, K? He might regret posting such a touchy subject and maybe he wont. He was just expressing his feelings about the membership rise. i repeat, DONT HATE MIMO CAUSE OF THIS LITTLE FREAKIN POST~~ >_<
P.S. Mimo u rock and dont eva stop postin~
One one hand, ONE post isn't enough to make me stop reading a blog (unless it contains fowl language). On the other hand, I agree, that was a completely unnecessary thing to say. And by food, i hope you mean junk food, or you're saying we don't need a necessity. I still think you are a good person, but that was ridiculous.
ok cp master we know disney needs money, THATS ANOTHER REASON WHY CP SHOULD GO TO MINICLIP!!!!THEY DIDNT NEED MONEY! THEY WERE JUST WEBSITE MAKING MONEY BECAUSE IT WAS CHEAP AND WORTH IT!!!!
MIMO IM SORRY FOR YOU ,BUT ALL THIS TRASH TALK IS TRUE.
$5.95 dollars or $7.95 dollars?
It's one month membership for the price of 2 months.
That's why I'm not a member anymore, but I wished I was.
Okay, Mimo. I disagree with all of these people calling you "brainless" and "a spoiled brat", but seriously? Eight dollars for a ONE MONTH membership for a game that has countless bugs with every update? I mean c'mon! I used to buy this, when it was three dollars cheaper! I know five dollars was a reasonable price and they need to get money, but eight dollars is rediculous. Their Puffle Launch App is a much better price, one dollar for infinite play, anywhere. They should be making more stuff like that instead of increasing their membership so that people that can barely afford already have to give it up. I have lost respect for you, but still have a plentiful amount of it. BUT GUYS, do you seriously need to gang up on Mimo?
SOME of us don't want to pay good money for virtual clothes and a few extra privelages. "A few dollars?" That's $6 a month! SOME of us don't go to movies, and SOME of us are careful with our money and don't waste it on "junk." SOME of us can't afford not to be "Cheap," by which you mean careful and wise about spending money. SOME of us want to be able to pay for college. SOME of us want to be able to get a car one day.
Quite honestly, I don't think it's worth it to spend perfectly good, useful money, especially in the condition the economy is in right now, on a virtual game. The reason some of us complain is that Club Penguin used to offer only clothes and igloos to members. Now they get special rooms at parties, and the games everyone can play are now severely limited in functionality to non-members.
I don't think you understand, nor from this post COULD understand, that some people have pecuniary priorities that far exceed the monthly tribute to a virtual little penguin world.
I think I'll be taking my internet traffic elsewhere from your site until you can respect those that are more cautious and intelligent about spending money.

So. there's 118 comments on this post now.
I get what people are saying, that paying for food isn't wasting money cos you need it to survive but paying for a year/month membership isn't as worthy. I get that, I think you guys who say that have a point.
There are people who's parents don't really care. They know sooner or later the memberships gonna end, and they can't be bothered paying for something that doesn't even last very long.
And then there are people saying how they're now losing respect for mimo because of his opinion on the subject. I think that that's stupid, i mean, its just an opinion! JEEZ! Everyone has one!
ETC ETC, the list goes on.
what i wanted to point out here, is YES some people are offended by the title being 'why are you so cheap?' and are also offended by 'only a few dollars' and they're saying its super expensive. i agree that it could have been reworded a little, but i guess mimo's had it with all your complaints. i've had it too.
Because you know what? Lets face it...
None of your comments are going to make a difference.
Either you buy your membership, you don't, you send/email a letter to Disney about the prices or you whinge to your parents about it since its YOUR family who's got the money. That's about your only options.
Stop blaming it on mimo. If someone else wrote a blog post like this, I bet you'll be hating on them instead.
I don't even think mimo is the first one to think this. There's 6 Billion people in the world!!
He just spoke up. Stop hating, haters.

------------------
all these people i totally agree with. Adrianna! You genius!!!! people shouldn't be complaining cause they're lucky to have computers and internet and cp while some families can't even afford food!!
I'm babbling. I'm sure you understand that i'm not pissed off about this whole membership subject. its just another one of those things in the internet world that no one can agree on.
P.S. guys, i'm pretty sure that mimo meant 'MOVIE' 'FOOD' and 'OTHER JUNK YOU DON'T NEED' as THREE SEPERATE things. he isn't calling food or movies junk, he isn't calling junk food and movies, and he DEFINITELY isn't calling movies food and junk. (movies are food?? :-/)
Hey! I've got an AWESOME IDEA!!!
What about we get Club Penguin to shut down? Or stop playing it altogether?
That way, we won't have to care about the prices because CP would be gone or we won't be playing it! We won't have to hate on Mimo anymore because we don't care about Club Penguin or there's no more Club Penguin to do cheats on!!
IS THAT A FANTASTIC IDEA OR WHAT?
Now, the people out there who have brains will know that i'm just being sarcastic. The people who DIDN'T get it and still care enough about Club Penguin will go "OMG THIS PERSON HATES CP! I'm gonna post a comment arguing against them!"
Ok, maybe they won't say that.
I'm not a hater. I still like Club Penguin even though I only really go on if there's a party or something. My point is that, even though you complain so much, I bet you still LOVE it. Or respect it. Whatever. If you hated it, why would you be looking at this? ;)
I'm a parent of two 5yr olds (some may say that is too young for virtual worlds, but I find it appropriate for ability and maturity of my kids), and we have paid for memberships to two online virtual games CP and Tootsville. I think tootsville is a huge waste of time, but I really like CP as a parent. However, the membership was something that we told our girls that they had to put on their Christmas list if they wanted it. A $60.00 membership for the year might not seem like much but times two thats now $120.00 and that is almost enough to buy food for our family of 4 for 1-2 weeks.
Everyone will always have different opinions on what is a waste of money, and there will always be people who can afford more than others. We just have to use a little diplomacy and compassion when we speak about it.
Yea exactly Mimo! Not everyone is FREEKIN' as rich as you! So stop it! Since they just raised the prices then of course! The 6 Month Membership used to be $29.95 and now it's $39.95 so stop being such a goody two shoes!
You just lost a viewer and that's me!
Oh and mimo.. ur a FREEKIN' SPOILED BRAT! YOU ARE HOME SCHOOLED SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET UP AT 7 AM JUST TO GET TO SCHOOL ON TIME! YOU HAVE IT THE EASY WAY! THINK ABOUT THE KIDS IN AFRICA! THEY WANDER AROUND HOMELESS DIE EVERYDAY BECAUSE OF HUNGER! AND THEY WALK AROUND NAKED! SO STOP FREEKIN' BEING A STUPID BRAT!
Guys dont hate Mimo cause he posted tht, its his opinion. Liek seriously example wut if ur bff loved the yankees and u lieked the mets. Would u hate him/her foreva cause of tht little comment, probably not. Now lets say Mimo was ur best friend would u hate him if he dislikes something tht u liek, example basketball? Probably not. so guys dont hate Mimo because he decided to express his opinion.
MIMO IS STILL THE AWESOME-IST PERSON IN THE WORLD~
Mimo, I agree. Why? And stop insulting Mimo. He just wants to know. I want to know too. Go Mimo!!!
8 DOLLARS! EASY! (If you don't live in the US, That is!)
Stop complaining people. i save up for my membership and i pay for it MY SELF! and it is sooo worth it! i only get 5 dollers a week and thats not much but i still do it! but just 2 months ago i also got my self a new ipod touch gen 4 :D i love it! and i am soo gonna buy the new app :D :D :D anywayz peoples stop complaining if you really really love cp then you would buy the membership. and soe people say they cant afford $8 a month!!?? wow thats eaither a big lie or your just cheap. if your so poor why do you spend your money on the internet and a computer then> huh! answer that.

You have just lost all the puny amount of "respect" I ever had for you.
The memberships are WAY to expensive.
Get it through you're little brain.
Some of us aren't "goody-goody" rich people with FREAKING truck loads of money like YOU! Don't be so spoiled!
SOME OF US CAN'T FREAKIN' AFFORD IT!! -_-

i am gonna STOP reading your blog! you r way wrong! some people cant AFFORD to buy a memberships you know!
get it through your little brain!
----------------------------------
Both of you are wrong. I dont come from a rich family. But I do have a member ship! Mimo is soooo right. You two are the ones with the little brain. Not Mimo!
-----------------------------------wow! you love mimo then! he is way wrong, thats why he ner reveals his information! dah! he must be like 16 yrs old!
We don't NEED a Club Penguin membership, either, you moron. Maybe we spend it on a movie instead because we want to treat our families to something special. Or maybe, some of us don't even earn money.
So shut up, and don't ask anything like that again.
This is coming from a CP veteran. I no longer play CP (I'm 14 now), but I've been around since 2006. And I've known about this site for years. Some of the stuff you post makes me really, really mad.

actually being homeschooled means you can wake up a lot earlier (learn self discipline), plus you can also have higher standards and be advanced a grade and even more in certain subjects.
homeschooling does NOT mean you stay home all day and never go out. there are many activities you do outside.
but, I'll have to say that homework will be very new in college, which might be a little hard at first.
i think a lot of the people are angry because of Mimo's disrespect.
Because no one wants to support Disney's greedy ambitions.
CP sold out, that why I don't play. and mimo, you don't understand how hard people were hit by the recession. A few dollars a month is a lot. I think kid's parents are more concerned about if there kids can eat, rather than if they can get a bigger igloo.
Wow. You have just lost the little respect I had for you. Some people aren{t spoiled little brats like you and have more important things. CP is just a virtual world to have fun! Not to spend almost 8 bucks a month to have VIRTUAL stuff in a game. People buy food because they need to eat. And you say it like if wasn't nessesary. I just think that since you have no real friends you just spend all your time in your computer playing virtual games and sociallicing with REAL PEOPLE. Seriously, GET IT THROUGHT YOUR BRAIN.
some people arent allowed to get it. just cos you might be, doesnt mean other can. 5 pounds a month is 60 pounds a year, so would you really spend 60 pounds a year just to have a few more igloo furniture, go to a special room or meet special penguin?
i would rather spend it on lego.
a response to tim 250...
firstly, not all of the non members will ban dressed up penguins - most of us are not jealous, but in fact actually laughing at the members - also, black ops is yours FOREVER - cp 1/2 year membership lasts for 1/2 A YEAR. can you tell the difference? (movies doesn't cost 40 pounds - at least not in the uk - dont know about your country)
Wow. At first, everyone says they don't have the money, which, honestly, my membership uses a LOT of our money. Then someone else goes, "seriously $8 isn't that much." ya, maybe to YOU, but to some people in other countries who might happen to have like one or two dollars, or to most americans because of the economy! and mimo, MAYBE, MAYBE, MAYBE, 7-8 dollars isnt the WORST out there, but there are other prices! Seriously, who spends 40-70 dollars on some virtual game??? It was a REALY bad time to boost up the prices, with the economy problems! And for anyone who cares to say back to me, "Oh! But you have a house and a computer! That's WAY more expensive!" Well the expensive prices USE OUR MONEY, which give us even less to play on silly little games.

Guys, Club Penguin NEEDS money. In this economic time, money is scarce. Club Penguin is a company. DISNEY NEEDS THE MONEY TO PAY THEIR WORKERS! Stop arguing about the price increase! Be glad you don't even need to pay to even PLAY Club Penguin. Some sites you need to PAY to actually play the site. When the economy gets better the prices will drop. Guys, ITS THE ECONOMY! Get used to the change and tough time we are going through. If you don't want a membership, you don't have to get one.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok, you say that CP needs money because the economy is scarce? I imagine they have about 50,000 bucks there to still BE THERE. Well WE also need money because the economy is scarce. We aren't a big company, so we probably have about 20,000 dollars. Yeah, we might get a thousand total on every payday, but cp gets about TEN THOUSAND total a MONTH. Or at least used to. So it's clear that THEY AREN'T THE ONLY ONES WHO NEED MONEY!!!

Hey Mimo's right, 8 dollars for a month membership. I don't have a job or allowance but i still manage to earn at least 60$ every month. There is a little thing called hard work sorry if most of you guys have never done it but it really comes through. You guys are so immature to complain so much about 8 dollars. If you can't scrape eight dollars up in a month then
1. that is really pathetic
2. try earning money, I mean really 8 dollars...
3. YOU DON'T NEED A STINKING MEMBERSHIP.
If you guys are gonna stop reading his blog because of 1 post then you guys really need help.
If you can't earn money at all try learning to mow or something, i live on 55 acres and guess who mows it. Some people will pay a lot for simple easy jobs. I got 100$ and a slushie for helping someone move. One thing I've learned is that hard work FREAKIN PAYS OFF. SO STOP BUGGING MIMO. Seriously guys some of you guys are just impossible to understand, 8 dollars I helped someone clean an office for 45 minutes and got 60 dollars it's not impossible guys, and if your gonna complain just don't get one. Maybe you should enter contests for free memberships or something.
~~~~~~~~~
Sorry, Mr. Hard Work, but I have a few answers for ya.
1. You have to be 16 years old to have a real job in the U.S. and if you're 16, no offense, but you're probably too old for CP, and hanging out with mostly 8 or 9 year olds. And having around 8 year olds play CP, how could they earn a hundred dollars mowing the lawn when they can barely spell "hundred"?
2. Not everyone says they WANT one. They just can't believe how Mimo probably treats his 6 Month memberships like a piece of string, no big deal.
3. To enter a contest you need to have a fancy privilege, like, be a member of the disney site, or, live in a separate country who's currency isn't accepted to buy memberships. And, I live in the U.S., whos money is obviously accepted, who's money is also low, and I'm barely allowed to have my CP account.
Lucky for me, I'm 10, and close to quitting CP, and I can do more than the little 8 year olds, but face it, not everyone can get $100 for finding a cat anymore.
P.S. I do hard work. But I don't always get buckets of money. I don't even get money at all. Even if I did, I'd spend it on something that lasts forever, not just a month to a year.
I'm just saying.
mimo, i believe that ppl should hav a member ship if they WANT to or if they can afford it. plus, i hav a member penguin & a NON member!
UR AWESOME!!!
Ur #1 fan,
Uni
